Hey, Marc! I'm doing great. I still get tired easily, but I feel stronger every day. As annoying as the tiredness gets, I luxuriate (??!!) in being pain free. It's just not something I've ever known in over 30 years, so overall I'm quite happy. The slight numbness I had in my hand dissipates daily and is almost entirely gone, as Dr. Donahue predicted. He said that the ulnar nerve was the most compromised with scar tissue, which he removed, but said that it would take longer to settle down.
Bottom line,...I'm extremely grateful. |

Ok, being a mom here, but be careful on the driving thing. If you're still taking narcotics 3 times a day you shouldn't be behind the wheel. You also want to avoid stretching those nerves out too much right now. RELAX!!!! Enjoy the time you need to recuperate. There are billions of seasons/versions of Law and Order out there.
